HISTORICAL NOTE William Eaton Foster ( ) was the first Librarian of the Providence Public Library. He was born on June 2, 1851 in Brattleboro, Vermont to Joseph Coggin Foster and Abigail Eaton Foster. He received both his BA and MA from Brown University in 1873 and 1876 respectively. Foster attended the "Convention of Librarians" held October 4-6, 1876 at the Historical Society of Pennsylvania which marked the birth of the American Library Association. In 1877, Foster accepted as position as Librarian of the new Providence Public Library where he served as the Library Director until his retirement in During his tenure, he was responsible for the expansion of the library s buildings and collections as well as several innovations in library service. He selected, classified and catalogued the library s initial 10,000 volume collection at its first location in the Butler Exchange building in downtown Providence. He oversaw the move of the library twice including into its current location at 125 Washington Street which opened on March 15, Foster was an innovator who believed firmly in library service. The Providence Public Library was among the first to feature separate services points including an information desk, a reference desk and reference room. He also introduced an children s department, art department, music Division, and foreign department to serve the needs of the growing community. Under Foster s direction, the Providence Public Library grew to include departments for special collections, architecture, Civil War, printing; adult education as well as a standard library and business branch. Foster also actively collected library materials with varying points of view and encouraged patrons to suggest books to be purchased. The library grew to include not only the central library, but a library system including 12 branches and over 100 miscellaneous agencies. The library collection grew from just 10,000 volumes to 400,000 with nearly 90,000 registered patrons. Foster continued to improve library service by lecturing new library trainees at the New York State Library School. As a writer and speaker, Foster actively promoted the importance of public
3 3 libraries and specifically the work of PPL. In addition to writing numerous newspaper articles, he published several books related to librarianship and history. Foster retired in February 1930 after serving as Librarian at PPL for 53 years. His dedication to library service was rewarded with numerous honors including an Honorary Litt.D from Brown University in 1901, an honorary membership to the Rhode Island School of Design in 1930, and the title Librarian Emeritus for life by PPL trustees. Foster died on September 10, 1930 after a long illness. He was survived by his wife of 44 years, Julia Appleton Foster.
